SCOTT PLATFORM

DESCRIPTION OF INFRASTRUCTURE

The Scott installation comprises two independent bridge linked platforms each
supported by steel jackets. The two platforms are the drilling and process platform
(DP), and the utilities and quarters platform (UQ).

The DP platform comprises an eight-leg jacket supporting an integrated deck housing


process train, gas treatment, flare boom, drilling facilities and derrick. The UQ
platform comprises a four-leg jacket supporting an integrated deck housing utilities,
living quarters, lifeboats, helideck, water injection, power generation and the exhaust
structure.

ENTRY SPECIFICATION

The entry specification for any third party tie back to the Scott Platform for offshore
processing would be assessed on an individual basis. The existing facilities process
sweet crude oil/gas well stream fluids. There are no facilities for processing
contaminants such as mercury or H2S.

Historically Scott has treated H2S levels up to 180ppm in the gaseous phase and
31ppm in the liquid phase.

EXIT SPECIFICATION

Crude oil and natural gas liquids are extracted from processing well stream fluids on
the Scott facilities and are exported via the Forties Pipelines System (FPS). The
export stream meets the FPS entry specifications.

Gas is processed on the Scott facilities to meet the SAGE entry specifications and is
exported via the SAGE system to St Fergus where natural gas and natural gas liquids
are separated. The natural gas is sent to the National Transmission System (NTS) and
the natural gas liquids are either sent on to the FLAGS system or to the Forties
Pipeline system for further processing into specification natural gas liquid products.

PRIMARY SEPARATION PROCESSING FACILITIES

The Scott process systems are designed to process well stream fluids from the Scott
reservoirs and export the separated oil and gas to shore.

These primary separation facilities include a single, three-stage, three-phase,


separation train, water injection and produced water disposal. Well performance is
tested by flowing any of the wells to the test separator which operates in parallel and
at the same conditions as the first stage separator.

Telford produced fluids are initially processed in the Telford separator and then flow
to the existing downstream Scott process systems. Telford produced fluids can also
flow through the Scott test separator via the topsides test manifold. Produced water is
treated by a dedicated Telford hydrocyclone skid. Injection water is supplied from the
existing platform system.

Produced fluids from the Rochelle field are initially processed in a dedicated Rochelle
vertical inlet separator and are separately measured, prior to commingling with Scott
and Telford produced fluids in the existing downstream compression and crude
stabilisation facilities.

The Rochelle production separator design incorporates provision to retrofit for


produced water should there be well productivity following formation water
breakthrough.

GAS TREATMENT FACILITIES

The Scott/ gas processing facilities include two parallel 100% centrifugal gas
compression trains currently operated in duty-standby mode. There is a single gas
dehydration contactor. Gas dehydration is performed using Triethylene Glycol.

Currently there are no contaminant removal facilities.


INDICATIVE SYSTEM CAPACITIES

Entry Specification Sweet Crude Oil


Exit Specification Crude oil and natural gas liquids are exported to FPS via
the Unity platform. Gas is exported to the SAGE
pipeline. The export streams are pre-treated to meet
FPS and SAGE entry specifications.
Oil Export 225,000 STB/day
Gas Compression 168 MMscfd
Gas Export As per Gas Compression less gas lift and fuel gas.
Gas Lift As per Gas Compression less export gas and fuel gas.
Produced Water Handling 240,000 STB/day. The installed hydrocyclone and
degasser capacity is 350,000 STB/day; however, system
capacity is limited by operating pressures and degasser
capacity.
H2S Removal Currently no H2S removal capability on Scott platform.
Dehydration 190 MMscfd
Water Injection 400,000 bwpd. Ullage in the system dependent on
injection pressure requirements.
